Cfmail undeliverable hell

Running CF 9.0.  Every now and then a mail file will end up in the undelivr folder.  For example our external SMTP server is twitchy, and sometimes there is no connection (briefly).  Other times it's impossible to tell why the mail fails to be sent.  The mail log says "The ColdFusion mail spool encountered an invalid spool file..." and of course the file is moved to the undelivr directory.
Well... once there I cannot get the mail to send by moving it back to the spool directory.  Once the file ends up as undeliverable it will not go.  It just gets re-sent to the undelivr folder.
These emails are not malformed.  They are automated messages to me and other ediotors that something has occurred on the server.  Email addresses are good, etc. These scripts are many years old and they have always works flawlessly until CF9.  Trust me, the files should go out just like all the other ones that do.
OK, I've searched this forum and the Internet for like problems and fixes.  I've tried restarting CF and then moving the files back to the spool, deleting the first file that didn't go out (if more than one file is in the undelivr folder), and saving as ASCII, UTF-8 no BOM, and even copying & pasteing the mail into notepad and saving back to the spool.  I've tried turning off TLS.  (The SMTP server is SSL)  I've tried turning off the spooler.  Nothing works.  No matter what I have tried, if it ends up in the undelivr directory it will not go out from the spooler.
Has anyone any ideas?  I've been programming CF since version 4 and I can usually figure these types of things out, but this one is a tough one.  Any help would be appreciated.

Phil,
Thanks for your input.  I had your issue back in my CF 5 days, and ever since I have used your approach--using chr(60) and chr(62) for the greater than and less than symbols--to get around names with spaces.. 
This problem I am dealing with here appears to be related to the cfmail files themselves.  Since I posted this, I tried a little experiment: One day when there were lots of undeliverables, I downloaded the undeliverable mail (our server is a virtual cloud server hosted by kickass.com) and uploaded them to a replicate virtual instance of the server on my desktop at home (I use VMWare to replicate the virtrual server as a development tool). Anyway, my VMWare server has the ability to mail out files through CF 9, so I uploaded the undeliverable mail to that spooler, and again, they would not go out, and were sent to the undelivr folder instead.  This happened after rebooting my VMWare server as well, so I think the inability to send undeliverable mail has something to do with the mail file itself *after* it is sent to the undelivr directory, not with any state that CF is in (locks, etc.).
As I said above I have been comparing the spool files with the undeliverable files and I cannot see any differences in the files, but it appears that once these files are sent on to the undelivr folder thay are somehow marked as undeliverable and cannot be sent out even from another CF server.
Now it is possible that somewhow my SMTP server on the other end is refusing to accept these files after one refusal--sort of recognizing them as not acceptable or spam or something, and I am going to try some tests to see if I can determine if this is the case. Again there is nothing special about these emails.  I have created a small program to resend the mail by copying and pasting the to, from, subject,. message, etc. information into a form to resend the mail, and they go out without any issues.  The underliverable emails occur only sporatically and are usually related to my SMTP server going offline every now and then.
BTW I still can't believe I am the only person who has come up against these "permanently undeliverable" mail files.

  • Cfmail  - works locally but not when uploaded

    Hi,
    I'm using cfmail with form variables for the email addreses.
    It's so users can send email to political candidates. Here's the
    code:
    <cfoutput>#Form.semails#</cfoutput>,<cfoutput>#Form.hemails#</cfoutput></p>
    <cfmail to="#Form.semails#,#Form.hemails#"
    replyto="#Form.useremail#" failto="[email protected]"
    from="#Form.useremail#" subject="Keep Maine Toxin-Free!"
    server="mail.nosuch.com" port="26" timeout="40"
    username="[email protected]" password="nosuch">
    #Form.usermessage#
    </cfmail>
    The form submit page collects those variables and passes them
    as form variables - GET. The "to" field in cfmail is populated by
    hidden fields that contain session variables... they're forwarded
    on as those .semails and .hemails form variables. Actual values
    have been replaced with "none" or "nosuch" for security, but you
    can see the structure anyway.
    This works when run locally, sends the emails as it should.
    When uploaded exactly as is to godaddy's server, it doesn't send
    emails. Doesn't throw any errors, the form results page displays as
    it should... but the emails just never get sent.
    I'd really appreciate any ideas...

    Unfortunately all that can't be done by us users of these
    shared hosting
    outfits. You'll need to contact GoDaddy support and ask them
    to take
    these steps. I'm sorry about your probably experience with
    this.
    While I use GoDaddy for my personal hosting where I care more
    about not
    spending a great deal of money over high performance. I do
    not wish my
    support experiences on anybody. If you know ColdFusion well
    and can
    tell support what needs to be done, they should be able to do
    it. Or,
    more likely, you would be able to figure out the self help
    tools to do
    it yourself. But, unless this has changed since my last
    experience,
    their support staff is not ColdFusion literate and are unable
    to guide
    other, inexperienced ColdFusion users.
    Saying all that. Email works just fine on my GoDaddy website
    and I do
    not believe I had to do anything special to use it.

  • Cfmail not working properly, Log files not updating

    I'm still trying to get this CFmail problem corrected.  The problem is CFmail is only send the mail out sporadically.  In many cases it will send out the mail and still put the message in the undeliverable folder.  My smtp server shows that the connection was opened and closed.
    I'm pretty sure that I'm dealing with a CF problem  since the mail logs are screwing up as well.  In the past when I'd have  a problem with CFmail I could go to my mail.log and see what was  happening.
    Those logs looked like this:
    "Error","scheduler-2","05/28/09","11:00:43",,"Invalid Addresses;    nested exception is:      javax.mail.SendFailedException: 550 No such  user (website_notification) Cached lookup "
    "Error","scheduler-2","05/28/09","11:00:43",,"Invalid Addresses;    nested exception is:      javax.mail.SendFailedException: 550 No such  user (wayneseattle) -ERR [email protected] not found "
    "Error","scheduler-2","05/28/09","11:00:43",,"Invalid Addresses;    nested exception is:      javax.mail.SendFailedException: 550 No such  user (ca-sl-broardmoor) Cached lookup "
    Now my logs look like this:
    "Error","scheduler-2","12/07/09","10:05:36",,""
    "Error","scheduler-4","12/07/09","10:17:22",,""
    "Error","scheduler-0","12/07/09","10:33:37",,""
    "Error","scheduler-0","12/07/09","10:53:53",,""
    Where did the error messages go?  
    Could this be a SMTP response message formating issue?  Any ideas in how  to figure this one out would be very much appreciated.

    Which version of CF are you using? You may have already checked this but under "Server Settings -> Mail -> Mail Logging Settings" there's an option box for "Log all mail messages sent                      by ColdFusion". If you have it unchecked you may not see all of that data.

  • Cfmail w/attachments issues

    Hi there,
    I have a basic html form where the user can add attachments.
    The action form uses cfmail to send an email to an address with the
    form contents as well as the attachment. However, I am having
    issues with this part and am at a loss. Do i need to do an upload
    first? or mim attachment? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in
    advance.
    My cfmail code looks like this:

    <cfmail to="[email protected]"
    from="a test person"
    subject="Request for yada yada">

    in /tmp/test.txt which is a file on the drive i am mapped to, then
    the cfmail works and delivers .. but this doesn't help me for other
    people and their attachments)
    </cfmail>
    </cfoutput>
    This never goes to the email address.. instead it goes to

  • CFMAIL and Editing Fields

    Hi all,
    I need to allow a user to fill out some forms with the
    following info: Name, Title, Supervisor, Division, Status, Salary,
    Effective Date and Remarks. After filling out the info, it needs to
    be sent via a link that will allow the recipient access to the
    table to edit if necessary. Then the recipient can 'Approve' or
    'Deny' the information and send it back for review and distribution
    by the original sender.
    The forms are already complete but I'm confused as to how the
    emailing and editable fields will work. I already have a CFMAIL
    page completed that used to display the information once it was
    input then simply mail it to the recipient. Well, now, the user
    wants the ability to have the recipient edit the information then
    email it back so that they can distribute it. So now I have to use
    a DB table, whereas before, it was just being sent as an email. So
    I've created the table with the columns for the info I mentioned
    before. What I'm confused with is how to make the transfer from
    just emailing information, to emailing a link that will allow the
    recipient to access the table, edit it if necessary, then Approve
    or Deny it and send it back in the same format. The Approval can
    simply be in the form of a field.
    So I basically need to make it so that I'm taking this and
    making it into an editable table via a link sent though an email
    after the user has filled out the necessary information in the
    forms before. Sorry for all the explaining and confusion. I've
    attached some code to look at and modify. I can provide more code
    from the form input pages if you'd like though I figured the logic
    of the email and the ability to allow the recipient to update the
    DB then actually send it back is in the page I attached. It's
    probably not as bad as it looks or sounds but it's confusing the
    hell out of me...
    Thanks a ton,
    Eric

  • Undeliverable Mail \ Unknown Exception

    I am seeking assistance in identifying the cause of an issue that results in undeliverable email when using cfmail.   On occasion (4 to 12 times in a 24 hour period) an email will be determined to be undeliverable and will be transferred to the /Undelivr directory.  Entries exist in the exception.log, however they are of no help in identifying the issue.  The first three lines of the entry appear as follows:
    "Error","scheduler-6","12/03/09","06:04:44",,""
    javax.mail.MessagingException:
    at com.sun.mail.smtp.SMTPTransport.issueCommand(SMTPTransport.java:879)
    Note that there is no detail message in the “javax.mailMessagingException:” line.
    A corresponding message is written to the mailsent.log.  It appears as follows:
    "12/03/09","06:04:44",,"Moved undelivered mail: Mail19743.cfmail to /usr/apps/coldfusionmx/Mail/Undelivr directory" "Information","scheduler-6"
    Finally, the message in the mail.log file appears as:
    "Error","scheduler-6","12/03/09","06:04:44",,""
    The email messages that are deemed to be undeliverable are successfully delivered when they are re-spooled for delivery.
    In an effort to determine if the problem is associated with the SMTP server, the environment was configured to use a different server.  The same problem occurred using both SMPT servers.
    A summary of the environment is:
    CF MX 6.1 (Java 1.4.2_11) running on Solaris 9
    Hot fixes applied:

  • IPhone 5S pre-order HELL!!

    Verizon iPhone 5S PRE-ORDER HELL!! - They screwed up and dragged my situation out for 9 days!!  At the end of it all I'm still missing an iPhone 5S.  9/20 @ midnight I ordered TWO iPhone 5S 16GB silver and received a order confirmation for BOTH phones and a confirmed ship by date of 9/24.  NO notification of anything went wrong.  9/22 - I get a shipping notification from Verizon but only one mobile # is listed.  I call Customer Care and rep just quickly and casually confirms that two phones shipped.  9/23 - I get an email saying they couldn't fulfill my order completely and that the remaining order will ship 9/30.  I call Customer Care again to inquire about this and he the rep went out of his way (great guy) to confirm that two phones have shipped and that I have nothing to worry about.  Said the message was generic and was mistakenly sent out.  9/25 - I receive package and find only ONE iphone!!  I called Customer Care again and this time Adam helped me.  After looking through things, he comes back saying he thinks the iPhone was taken out of the box before shipment, stolen!!!  Had me send him all this information and said the Verizon investigation team is on it to "look" for the iphone. I asked if he could put a new order in and just exchange it for the "misplaced" iPhone.  He said it was not necessary because he believes there is a iphone somewhere.  9/27- Adam leaves me a voice mail saying that it was all a misunderstanding and my iphone should ship 9/30 and he'll be on it.  9/29 - I help my wife activate her iPhone because she tried until 3am the night before with no help.  While I'm on with Customer Care again she, Ida, asks how's my phone service in which I explain to her everything.   She looks into it and says she sees no record of any order or tracking for an iPhone.  Further says the reason one iPhone was placed on hold because a discount was applied to two devices and it could only be used for one.  I told her that I've never been notified by Verizon that something went wrong until today.  And this is after calling Customer Care numerous times.  And NOW I find this out.  She says she's going to look into it as there might be a small chance that there is an iPhone for me.  She said she'll call back by 5pm and txted me her email address.   6:00pm comes and no callback.  It also turns out the email address is bogus.  I call Customer Care again and get another rep who looks into it and does a whole bunch more investigation.  Finally she says there never was an order for my iphone and there will be no iphone shipping tomorrow.  My only choice is to place a new order and I won't get it until 10/14!!!  SERIOUSLY!!! ARGGGGGHHHHHHGGHGHHGG!!! Expletives galore!!!  Talked to the manager Brandon and asked if they can do something for me to compensate me for all this crap I went through.  I've been with Verizon for like 15 years.  He kept on saying "I understand ..blah..blah.. BUT there's nothing we can do" over and over again.  So I said Verizon made a mistake, detected this mistake but didn't notify the customer of this mistake, Customer Care couldn't figure it out until today, and that I'm out of luck?  Does he REALLY understand?  If I had known all this I could have walked to a store on 9/20 and gotten a iphone.  Pre-ordering was suppose to be a convenience provided, right? And I waited because I was led to believe that some iPhone existed..  dragged along for a ride only to find out there was no iphone.   And after all this, I get nothing but "I understand....  But there's nothing we can do..."  So yes people Verizon stinks!!! They do not hold themselves accountable for their mistakes and expects the customer to just take it.   I'll have to admit that not all customer service reps are bad (Ty, Adam, and the very last girl who helped me you guys were awesome!!  Ida you could have made this list until you decided not to call me back and gave me a bogus email).  Customer Care is a mixed bag and have not real authority to help you.  Verizon is about to lose yet another loyal customer and his family soon.  There should be some class action lawsuit for all the iphone 5s issues.  Promises/Contracts made but Verizon completely failed to keep.  They just jerk us along for a ride, dangling that ship date that keeps moving around.

    "Customer Care is a mixed bag and have not real authority to help you." I worked for Verizon before it was Verizon, for several years. I think that you are entirely correct in your assessment of customer care. Reps really can't do much at all. I believe that the key function of reps is 1. hand holding and 2. punching bag. The goal is to get the customer believe that they actually DID something, and got some result! After all the talking, the customer starts to believe that something actually happened to resolved the situation. At least they spoke to SOMEONE! Picture this: the rep is on the computer, wearing a headset, and the calls are coming at them non-stop, and you have 3 minutes to convince this person that you actually helped them! But in the end, as you said, nothing happened!  It is the sad truth of cs.
    I am curious to see if the Moderator leaves this post on the board.

    No, you can stop using the account, but you cannot delete it.

    Thanks,

    Hi,
    As you mentioned that you just upgraded the database, so the data is same and schema is same you can connect with the same work schema.
    Yes, you can use the same contexts , but need to do Reverse Engineering for your new database.
    And about data server, i think you also have no need to create new data server, if hostname,sid and port etc are same as these were with R11(consult with your DBAs regarding it)

  • How to use cfmail without specifying username and password??

    Hi pp,
    i have been trying to use the cfmail functionality to send and receive e-mails connecting to the smtp server of <MyUniversity>
    i am creating a page where, at the end a e-mail has to be sent from <[email protected]> to <[email protected]>
    i am connecting with the univ server from the cf server to test whether the e-mails are delivered.
    the e-mails are sent only if i mention the <Username> and <Password> fields belonging to the <[email protected]>
    for my test case i used my own id and the if i set the username and pwd, the e mails are sent, otherwise the emails are not getting delivered.
    can someone suggest why this is happening and i have to make sure that at the end of launching the site, i dont have to get the username and password, because i will not be given access to it as a developer.
    Please suggest me wat to do.
    i am using the simple cfmail function.

  • Using a radio button in cfmail / form.

    Hello;
    This is a silly question, but I can't remember how to program in radio buttons for a cfmailer. I have 3 radio buttons, basically, I just need to know what the users choice was when they checked it off. The following is my radio buttons and what I have for code right now. But I'm not grabbing the proper variable, I also tried dumping a few diffrerent variables to see if I could get it.
    <input name="type" type="radio" onClick="setVisibility('sub3', 'inline');setVisibility('sub4','none');setVisibility('sub5','none');" value='male' checked="checked"/>Magnets
    <input type="radio" name="type" value='female' onClick="setVisibility('sub3', 'none');setVisibility('sub4','inline');setVisibility('sub5', 'none');"/>Paper Steel
    <input type="radio" name="type" value='child' onClick="setVisibility('sub3', 'none');setVisibility('sub4','none');setVisibility('sub5', 'inline');"/> both
    on my response page, I tried this:
    <cfif form.type EQ "male">
    if this was their choice, then this set of rules would apply
    </cfif>
    and so on for the other two choices. This isn't catching my buttons, what am I doing wrong? do I need to make a paramiter for the radio buttons before I can allow it to function? like this?
    <cfparam name="FORM.type" default="">
    then I can use my if statement? (that isn't working right now either)
    here is what I'm trying to dump:
    <cfdump var="#form.type#">
    <cfabort>
    </cfdump>
    How do I do this? Can anyone help me?

    I suspect that you have a problem in some portion of your code that you have not posted. To help debugging I suggest you create a simple test using two pages: input.cfm and action.cfm.  Get the most simple case working then add the javascript, css, and CF code to make your application work.

    hello i forgot my i cloud password..anyone can help me to find my password.i already make a new apple id..but my icloud use another account..so how to reset my iCloud account plz hel me

    Making a new Apple ID is not a good idea, since you have to reset the password for that Apple ID anyway. All of your purchases are tied to the Apple ID that the iCloud account was created under. So, you have to retrieve the password for that Apple ID in order to sign into iCloud anyway.
    Go to Manage your Apple ID, and click on the Reset Password option (Apple - My Apple ID). Sign on with the Apple ID that the iCloud account was created under, and answer the security questions. If you do not remember the answers to the Security Questions, contact Apple Support to have them reset:

  • CFMAIL Any Faster In CF8? How many mails per minute?

    Hi there,
    We are currently running CF 7.02 and are considering
    upgrading to 8.
    I've seen lots of articles extolling the speed increases in
    CF8 over 7 etc. but I wondered if there was much of a performance
    increase in regards to CFMAIL?
    We send out vast quantities of emails every day and at busy
    times CFMAIL struggles to keep up. Mails seem to be sent out quick
    enough to our mail server but it seems to be the physical process
    of creating the cfmail files ready for sending that is a little
    slow.
    I think I read somewhere that under CF7 CFMAIL could create
    about 600 CFMAIL files a minute. Does anyone know what the figure
    is for CFMAIL under CF8?
    Or does anyone have any real world experience of CFMAIL
    speeding up or slowing down following an upgrade from CF 7 to 8?
    If this is still slow does anyone have any experience of
    using third party, dedicated, products to do what CFMAIL does? The
    mails we send are stored as entries in our SQL DB and we currently
    use CFMAIL to query the DB and produce html and plain text emails
    from these entries. Is there anything that we coul use to do that
    and take CFMAIL out of the loop?
    Cheers,

  • Cfmail spool sending one message at a time

    I have mx7 standard installed on win 2003 server
    a cfmail page sends files to the spool corectly.
    The spool is only sending out one message every 60 seconds or
    so. Changing the spool interval has no effect.
    these need to go out a lot faster than this.
    the mail.log is showing this but i'm not sure it's the
    problem.

    thanks for any help in advance.

    I would suggest playing with the other mail specific
    settings, such as #of mail delivery threads, but my guess is you've
    already messed with these.
    Perhaps it has nothing to do with CF, but rather a bottleneck
    with the process that is creating the emails. How many emails are
    you trying to send?
    Is it a query driven mail tag?
    Another aspect to check would be the version of JRUN being
    used by CF. You might find an update to a newer version of JRUN
    would solve the problem.
    Given the errors you've listed (SocketTimeout), they seem to
    be JAVA specific.
    In any case, good luck!

  • Audigy 4 pro sound card HELL please advise!!!

    hi all,
    right i'll TRY to keep it simple!.....
    BEFORE my (recently brand new) hard dri've died and caused me all sorts of probs (and ?300) my soundcard was fine it was :
    windows 7
    audigy 4
    cubase 4
    daniel k's drivers (i think OR it was the one that came with the card)
    with this i HAD the option of acti've X driver OR creative asio (used this as was much much better)
    SINCE it died i've tried everything for days and days of hell to get this driver on, heres the symptoms:
    using the CD that came with the audigy it takes 45 mins to load and then tells me there is NO sound card fitted (tried this 3 or 4 times)..
    i physically took t?he card out (twice) and it made no difference and still didnt recognise any card fitted.
    i've had to system restore a few times to get it 'see' ANY driver.....i've also downloaded some drivers but same symptoms as above.
    using the acti've x the latency is a prob though i have adjusted it to make it work BUT am thinking this is one of the reasons my cubase freezes / crashes / and now makes crackling noise especially when using a reverb vst.
    the whole system was great B4 this and i've lost 3 or 4 days and am now at the throwing it out of the window phase.
    BEFORE it handled superior drummer as a VST and midi / audio files + reverbs all at the same time NO problem.
    the current set up is almost identical and in fact a tickle better than B4 so WHY wont it see a sound card ?when trying a different dirver?
    HELP! Si in Brighton.

    ta...yes it does.
    works (almost) fine with the acti've X driver, apart from telling me line/mic is NOT available....spent all day (again) trying to get the 3.8 daniel K pack on there.....came back with 'somethings wrong' meessage each time.
    it just baffles me that my hard dri've
    cd rom AND now (maybe) the card all ferk up at exactly the same time!
    i recorded afterwards and it was fine for hours.....
    cheers si
